added a 'when you see it' tag because when you see its thumbnail...

Man, that's all kinds of awesome.

h-how?! Truly excellent

A brilliant use of transparency if I ever saw one.

This is truly awesome...

Awesome Thumbnail is Awesome.

Me: Kotomi! Did you just see that?!
Kotomi: See what?
Me: THAT! It...just...the...thi-...while you're playing!
Kotomi: What's wrong? Does my (transition to ghost voice) song frighten you much? Why so serious??
(pun unintended)

Wow. Impressive.
Just.. impressive.

It turns out that the word "Hastur" can be played on a violin.

Alpha channel. (I.E. Transparency - if one displays transparent parts of the image as black, and the other as white, then you wind up with different images.)

Or to make it simple, the misleading part is made so when seen in white background, it would look like as you see here. But if you open the image in a new tab where background is black, it will show the actual image as you see from thumbnail.

So it's not so much as misleading thumbnail, it's more like misleading image.

Sorry for commenting on old posts, but maybe this should have the Thumbnail Surprise tag.
I'm adding it but I don't know if it's alright. It only appears on Dark Mode in my phone.
